Emraan
Hashmi
starrer
movie
Crook-It's
Good
To
Be
Bad,
faced
a
lot
of
censorship
controversy
before
it
got
released
today.
The
censor
board
had
asked
producer
Mahesh
Bhatt
to
edit
a
topless
scene
from
the
film
so
that
it
could
be
certified
as
a
U/A
movie.
But
Mahesh
was
adamant
to
keep
the
scene
in
the
film
and
for
this,
he
was
ready
to
release
the
movie
with
an
'A'
certificate.
However,
the
director
of
the
movie,
Mohit
Suri
wanted
to
get
a
U/A
certificate
for
his
movie
so
he
approached
his
uncle
who
is
the
producer
of
the
film,
Mahesh.
The
censor
screening
of
Crook
was
done
last
Tuesday
in
presence
of
Mohit
Suri
and
Mukesh
Bhatt.
A
source
was
quoted
saying
that
the
controversial
scene
was
shot
in
Australia
with
an
actress
named
Stella
Alan.
A
drunken
Emraan
passes
out
in
Stella's
car
and
finds
himself
on
her
bed
the
next
morning,
when
he
wakes
up.
He
gets
to
see
her
changing
her
clothes,
when
he
comes
out
from
the
washroom,
the
source
added.
The
source
further
said
that
in
this
particular
scene,
the
camera
captures
the
nude
backside
of
the
actress.
Mahesh
has
reportedly
tried
to
justify
his
decision
by
saying
that
a
film
like
Ram
Teri
Ganga
Maili
was
allowed
to
show
frontal
nudity,
then,
why
his
film
restricted
to
do
so.
However,
the
censor
board
was
not
willing
to
buy
his
justification
and
thus
rubbished
the
point.
When
Mohit
and
Mukesh
approached
Mahesh,
he
reportedly
decided
not
to
compromise
with
the
scene
in
any
circumstances.
It
is
learnt
that
the
actress,
who
has
performed
the
topless
scene,
had
no
issues
to
shoot
it
even
without
a
body
suit.
In
fact,
the
director
Mohit
Suri
proposed
to
opt
for
a
body
suit
if
the
actress
was
feeling
uncomfortable
but
Stella
was
fine
without
it.
Mahesh
Bhatt
has
admitted
that
he
had
a
spat
with
Mohit
regarding
this
censor
issue
but
later
added
that
there
was
nothing
wrong
in
it.
Bhatt
said
that
the
scene
has
a
dramatic
impact
and
it
is
very
relevant
to
the
film.
He
said
that
the
young
generation
expects
some
sensationalism
in
the
movies
so
he
will
prefer
keeping
the
scene
and
go
ahead
with
an
'A" certificate.
